While not from Amazon, I got an email from a rewards program to a store at which I seldom shop for more than $20 total in a year:

"I went to Star Wars Celebration VII in Anaheim, and I didn't get even a lousy t-shirt."

Barnes & Noble stores, when you buy in their "stores" (like a website, if they built walls and a roof around the search bar and links, or shopping cart and checkout screens) they print out "You May Also Like..." receipts. I got these recommendations:
Star Wars Fate of the Jedi #7: Conviction by Aaron Allston
Apocalypse: Star Wars (Fate of the Jedi) by Troy Denning
Star Wars Fate of the Jedi #9: Apocalypse by Troy Denning
Star Wars Fate of the Jedi #6: Vortex by Troy Denning
Star Wars The Old Republic #2: Deceived by Paul S. Kemp

Nice that they want me to buy the same book, with a slightly different order to the title, and if their systems had any tracking like everything else seems to these days, they'd know that I already bought all of those books, FROM THAT SAME STORE, including FOTJ #9 Apocalypse THE PREVIOUS WEEK. You're welcome!

Speaking of which, do you guys remember the time Amazon got themselves in deep **** when they listed movies about Martin Luther King and Malcolm X under the recommendations list for the "Planet of the Apes" DVD?

A certain online website (yeah, you heard me ) keeps asking me if I am still interested in buying two specific items... that I already bought FROM THAT WEBSITE. No, I do not want to buy a second one of the exact same thing. You're welcome. It was funny and odd the first 2-3 times it came up; now it's just sad.
